Interesting piece in the New York Times on the latest in telematics in Japan. The computer mouse built into the steering wheel sounds useful.
From Nissan: "Embedded in the steering wheel is a thumb-operated computer mouse, which gives access to traffic, weather and safety reports from the Web and also lets the driver download videos, e-mail and music. Assuming you're not driving, you can see all that on a liquid-crystal-display screen on the dashboard. If the car is moving, you can use spoken commands to have your e-mail read to you." -- Al
